NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed between the parties hereto as follows:

1. SERVICES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SUB-ADVISER

1.1 INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The Sub-Adviser shall act as the investment subadviser to the Series and, as such, shall (i) obtain and evaluate such information relating to the economy, industries, businesses, securities markets and securities as it may deem necessary or useful in discharging its responsibilities hereunder, (ii) formulate a continuing program for the investment of the assets of the Allocated Portion in a manner consistent with its investment objectives, policies and restrictions and the investment guidelines as provided to the Sub-Adviser, and (iii) determine from time to time securities to be purchased, sold, retained, borrowed or lent by the Allocated Portion, and implement those decisions, including the selection of entities with or through which such purchases, sales or loans are to be effected; provided, that the Sub-Adviser will place orders pursuant to its investment determinations either directly with the issuer or with a broker or dealer.

The Sub-Adviser will select brokers and dealers to effect all portfolio transactions subject to the conditions set forth herein. The Sub-Adviser will place all necessary orders with brokers, dealers, or issuers, and will negotiate brokerage commissions, if applicable. The Sub-Adviser is directed at all times to seek to execute transactions for the Allocated Portion (i) in accordance with any written policies, practices or procedures that may be established by the Board of Trustees or the Manager from time to time and which have been provided to the Sub-Adviser or (ii) as described in the Series’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”). In placing any orders for the purchase or sale of investments for the Series, in the name of the Allocated Portion or its nominees, the Sub-Adviser shall use its best efforts to obtain for the Allocated Portion “best execution,” considering all of the circumstances, and shall maintain records adequate to demonstrate compliance with this requirement. In no instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Manager, Adviser or the Sub-Adviser, or any of their affiliated persons, except in accordance with the 1940 Act, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (“Advisers Act”), and the rules under each, and all other federal and state laws or regulations applicable to the Trust and the Series.

The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will not execute any portfolio transactions for the Allocated Portion with a broker or dealer which is (i) an affiliated person of the Fund, including the Manager, Adviser or any sub-adviser for the Fund; (ii) a principal underwriter of the Fund's shares; or (iii) an affiliated person of such an affiliated person or principal underwriter, unless such transactions are: (w) exempt under Rules 10f-3(b) or 17a-10; (x) executed in accordance with Rule 17e-1 of the 1940 Act and the Fund's Rule 17e-1 procedures, as adopted in accordance with Rule 17e-1; (y)executed in accordance with Rule 10f-3(c) of the 1940 and the Fund's Rule 10f-3(c) procedures, as adopted in accordance with Rule 10f-3; or (z) executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act and the Fund’s Rule 17a-7, as adopted in accordance with Rule 17a-7. The Manager agrees that it will provide the Sub-Adviser with a written list of such brokers and dealers and will, from time to time, update such list as necessary. The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will provide the Manager with a written list of brokers and dealers that are affiliates of the Sub-Adviser and will, from time to time, update such list as necessary.

Subject to the appropriate policies and procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, the Sub-Adviser may, to the extent authorized by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) cause the Allocated Portion to pay a broker or dealer that provides brokerage or research services to the Manager, the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and the Allocated Portion an amount of commission for effecting a Series transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Sub-Adviser determines, in good faith, that such amount of commission is reasonable in relationship to the value of such brokerage or research services provided viewed in terms of that particular transaction or the Sub-Adviser’s overall responsibilities to the Series or its other advisory clients. To the extent authorized by Section 28(e) and the Board of Trustees, the Sub-Adviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of such action. Subject to seeking best execution, the Board of Trustees or the Manager may direct the Sub-Adviser to effect transactions in portfolio securities through broker-dealers in a manner that will help generate resources to pay the cost of certain expenses that the Trust is required to pay or for which the Trust is required to arrange payment.

On occasions when the Sub-Adviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of the Allocated Portion as well as other clients of the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to, aggregate the securities to be purchased or sold to attempt to obtain a more favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution. Allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Sub-Adviser in the manner which the Sub-Adviser considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Allocated Portion and to its other clients over time.

The Sub-Adviser shall provide reasonable assistance to the Manager, the custodian or recordkeeping agent for the Trust in determining or confirming, consistent with the procedures and policies stated in the Trust’s registration statement on Form N-1A with respect to the Series (“Registration Statement”)(a copy of which will be provided to the Sub-Adviser by the Adviser), the value of any portfolio securities or other assets of the Allocated Portion for which the Manager, custodian or recordkeeping agent seeks assistance from the Sub-Adviser or identifies for review by the Sub-Adviser. This assistance includes (but is not limited to): (i) designating and providing access to one or more employees of the Sub-Adviser who are knowledgeable about the security/issuer, its financial condition, trading and/or other relevant factors for valuation, which employees shall be available for consultation when the Manager’s Valuation Committee convenes; (ii) assisting the Manager or the custodian in obtaining bids and offers or quotes from broker/dealers or market-makers with respect to securities held by the Allocated Portion, upon the reasonable request of the Manager or custodian; (iii) upon the request of the Manager or the custodian, confirming pricing and providing recommendations for fair valuations; and (iv) maintaining adequate records and written backup information with respect to the securities valuation assistance provided hereunder, and providing such information to the Manager or the Trust upon request, with such records being deemed Trust records.

The Series hereby authorizes any entity or person associated with the Sub-Adviser which is a member of a national securities exchange to effect or execute any transaction on the exchange for the account of the Series which is permitted by Section 11(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and the Series hereby consents to the retention of compensation for such transactions in accordance with Rule 11a2-2(T)(a)(2)(iv).

The Sub-Adviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the control of the officers and Trustees of the Trust (the “Trustees”) and consistent with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Series as adopted by the Trustees, and subject to such further limitations as the Series may from time to time impose by written notice to the Sub-Adviser and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

The Manager and Sub-Adviser each agree that the Sub-Adviser shall manage the Allocated Portion as if it was a separate operating portfolio and shall comply with Section 1 of this Sub-Advisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to the Series and qualifications of the Series as a regulated investment company under the Code) only with respect to the Allocated Portion.

The Sub-Adviser will be an independent contractor and will have no authority to act for or represent the Trust, Series or the Manager in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust, Series or the Manager except as expressly authorized in this Agreement or another writing by the Trust, the Manager and the Sub-Adviser.
